The only general rule is that you can’t generalize and remain accurate. It is likely, however, that many of the objections raised are about changing the definition of marriage rather than judging the gay lifestyle. I think that the vast majority of Americans can keep the two issues separate.

Did you ever consider that the disagreement with homosexual marriage has nothing to do with whether people “like” gays or not, rather we object to changing the definition of the word marriage, which for thousands of years has meant the union of one man and one woman?

Since gay unions do not fit the definition of marriage, why not make their own definition of such a union? Wouldn’t that just show the same respect for someone else’s beliefs that gays want shown to them about their chosen lifestyle?

Personally I agree with David and I am concerned that reliable information and studies that are contrary to the message the gay community wants to send out aren’t being given the same attention by the media, by the schools and by the government. Thus our children are being exc;isove;u taught a message promoted by a “special interest”. Who knows what irreparable harm this misinformation causes.? When it gets to the point where there are school systems in this country that are essentially letting elementary school age children decide “whether they feel like a female or a male today” and affecting the administration of hormones to bolster those feelings, then we’re playing a dangerous game of Russian roulette with the future generation of our society.

Probably because whatever the government promoted definition of marriage is what will be taught to children. Look at the San Francisco school system that has huge homosexual promotion in their public schools. In their most recent annual survey, 13% of the students said they were something other than straight…ie gay, lesbian, transsexual, etc.

Sexuality is not fixed and actually had a lot of fluidity. I am not saying that all gays chose to be gay (many studies I have seen show the early environmental factors have a huge impact and a gay gene has never been found although I believe someone can have genetic dispositions to sexual openness) but what we teach our children will impact their behavior and life dramatically. Upholding homosexuality as a positive standard for our children is unhealthy and dangerous.

That said, I would like to see rights expanded for gays without changing what marriage means and what is promoted to children.

Agreed with what @David said. Huckabee is just saying, don’t give a crap about what Perez thinks. I don’t give a crap about what most bloggers, journalists or analysts think and I don’t think there is anything wrong with it.

Huckabee isn’t saying that he shouldn’t share his thought…he just is saying he doesn’t care much about what he says…no matter what it is.

I think you are twisting words.

You may not care what I say, but that doesn’t mean you are saying that I should never share my thoughts.
